• Windows Forms TextBox text cursor location

  This seems like a silly question... I have a TextBox. I update the text, atb.Text = "new string". The text cursor is then automatically moved to the beginning of the text box, but i want the cursor at the end of the string so I can continue adding to it. How do I control where the text cursor is positioned Thanks. With the SelectionStart property of the TextBox: this .textBox1.Text = "1234567890" ; this .textBox1.SelectionStart = this .textBox1.Text.Length; This would set the cursor at the end of the text. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Open picture fullscreen

  Hi! I want to open a picture fullscreen from my Winforms application. I've tried to maximise my application window, and removing all the controls from the window as well as the borders. Then I set the picture I want to display as the background of the window. While it almost works(the taskbar is still shown), I'm sure there are better ways. Any hints on how I should do it would be appreciated. Vidar You;re in the right track. You need size your app so that the non-client area is outside the screen. That's how you do a 'full screen' app. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) "yield enumerate"...

  (Slightly off-topic, but it at least deals with enumerations.) Lately, I've found myself using the following pattern: public IEnumerable<T> Foo(IEnumerable<T> values, IEnumerable<T> moreValues) {     foreach (T t in values)    {       yield return t;    }     foreach (T t in moreValues)    {       yield return t;    }     // more yielding }   For example, if I want to maintain the sanctity of values, but catenate another set of values (checksums, e ...Show All

• Visual Studio Exclude from Source Control

  In VS 2005/VSS 0.0d The option to Exclude xxxx from Source Control is not available to me for any files in a web site project. Which would be desirable as for example the web.config I use is not the same as for other team members, and also for dll references in the bin folder of the web project. Exclude from source control is not supported for web projects. Dll references in bin folder should be automatically excluded. Search the forum for "exclude", the issue has been discussed before in a couple of theads like  http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=106422&SiteID=1 ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Creating xll files (excel library files) in visual c++ 2005 express

  Hey. I know this forum isn't specific to excel, but I haven't gotten any responses from the excel.programming newsgroup so I thought I would try here. I am trying to create xll files for excel so I can use my existing c++ code to do custom functions through excel. I have a book which explains the basic ideas, but it says to include xlcall.h and xlcall32.lib from the excel 97 sdk. These files won't compile in visual c++ 2005 express. i was wondering if anyone knew where to locate equivalent files which would compile in visual studio 2005 express, or any good resources on using visual c++ 2005 express to create custom functions for excel using ...Show All
